    Bison Burgers With Miranda Kerr 🍔

    Happy tour week, cuties! We have a pitch for expanding your jacket wardrobe, and it’s kinda genius. Are your kids into Ooshies? Is it a good thing, a bad thing, or just Gen Alpha’s equivalent to collecting Spice Girls’ photos? In very important couple news, our queen Raye may have found her husband, and we’re squealing. Lu spent the $99 on Kyle Sandilands Live so you don’t have to, and the first morning of his new show was A LOT. Here’s why we think it will be a flop. Meanwhile, the recent Perez Hilton livestream episode feels way too Black Mirror-y for us. Fresh off Revz and Gem’s More Time chat asking if you can ever be friends with your ex, Hilary Duff and Joel Madden just surprised us all with the Good Charlotte performance we didn’t know we needed, and it’s got us thinking - should WE be friends with our exes?  Miranda Kerr is coming for our eggs and our sushi, and we simply won’t stand for it. We’re unpacking the supermodel’s bizarro diet claims and why it could be causing more damage than good. But real talk - where do we get our hands on a fresh bison burger? Our INs and OUTs for the week include a fab red lip, a cool vintage accessory, and a real hair level-up.  Mentions: Know Thyself live tour tickets  More Time: Can You Be Friends With Your Ex? @reallifewithmg Let’s Be Honest with Kristin Cavallari: Secrets of a Supermodel with Miranda Kerr Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution, Red Carpet Red Lomax Hair Zig-zag headbands Follow us: @the_fifth_trimester See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Shocking Next Chapter In The Ariana Grande Saga

    There’s nothing better than kick-starting your week by being labelled a “low-value woman” by the manosphere. We unpack what happened when our dating-after-divorce reel was served to the entirely wrong audience. We also watched Poster Boy: Becoming Zyzz on Stan over the weekend and have SO many thoughts. Next up, Ariana Grande’s new Petal video has dropped, and it’s a haunting, hard watch that's left us bloody exhausted, tbh. We discuss why this rage-baiting new piece of content has finally prompted a rare announcement from her team about her next move. Then, our favourite Melbourne stylist, Liv Brown of @rattle_style, is back to talk all things party dressing. What the helly are we wearing to 40ths/ weddings/and other fancy events? Liv has the answers, the lewks and enough inspiration to make us want to RSVP a hard “YES” to everything. And we’re rounding it all out with our weekly IN & OUT segment, featuring the return of an old-school social media platform, a seriously chic skiwear brand and an absolute goldmine for beauty bargains.  Mentions: The Butterfly Foundation  MS Readathon  Poster Boy - Becoming Zyzz on Stan Follow Liv Brown @rattle_style Lu’s butter squishy  Being Haircare from TK Maxx AMERL Skiwear We Don’t Have Time For This 2026 Know Thyself tour tickets Listen to our episode: Why Are We Ignoring The Ariana Grande In The Room?

    Lu’s Brutal Break-Up 💔

    Eastern Rosellas! Eastern Rosellas! Has this earworm been stuck in ya noggin 24/7 too? We’re unpacking the most wholesome internet moment in recent memory and why it’s resonating so hard. Plus, two very exciting doccos are coming to Netflix and Stan about two VERY different Aussie icons: Raygun and Zyzz. ’90s heartthrob Jerry O’Connell is being grilled for apparently dumping former E! News anchor Giuliana Rancic over his intercom back in the day, so naturally, we asked YOU guys for the most savage ways you’ve ever been dumped. From interstate ghostings and Snapchat break-ups to the deeply awkward returning of shared pets… buckle up. According to Vanity Fair, it’s officially set to be a sad girl summer, and Lu has never felt more seen after a brutal break-up with yet another Peter Pan ’eff boy. We unpack it ALL. And our INs and OUTs this week include an MVP mascara, a beaut necklace and a very intriguing new lingerie trend.

    Can Love Survive A Mismatched Aura?

    The soccer World Cup is officially over, which means we’re now desperately searching for a new personality, anyone got any suggestions? We’re also breaking down the tournament’s first-ever half-time show, which felt like one big FIFA dream. Next up, we’re diving deep into the Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley break-up and presenting our very scientific theory on why they split. Spoiler: it all comes down to their wildly mismatched ~auras~. It was also weddings galore over the weekend, with Sporty Spice, aka Melanie C, tying the knot with her Aussie beau, and Taylor Swift’s ex Matty Healy also saying “I do” in a very rock-and-roll ceremony. Plus, our INs and OUTs include a genius haircut hack, a vintage camera app and the birthday-party trend we’re ready to retire.

    AMA: The Backlash We Got For Starting A Podcast

    It’s our 30th ep, so what better way to celebrate than with a little round of the old-fashioned parlour game, Ask Us Anything. In this no-holds-barred chat with your TFT hosts, NOTHING is off limits as we answer all your burning quezzies, from our thoughts on Botox, controversial parenting opinions, to how we nurture our female friendships, what we’d tell our younger selves, and the very surprising backlash we received after starting the podcast (and you’ll never guess who it was from). It’s juicy AF, fellas. Oh, and ears primed for a surprise announcement too! Thanks for choosing us, DLs (hehe).  Mentions: Harbourlife tickets Viral dumpling toy Follow us: @the_fifth_trimester See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Taylor Swift’s Wedding Is Coming To A Cinema Near You

    It was the millennial equivalent of a Royal Wedding, with music icon Taylor Swift marrying Kansas City Chiefs NFL player Travis Kelce in the most lavish, over-the-top celebration imaginable - at none other than Madison Square Garden on Friday, July 3rd. From the very modern bridal party to the Dior gown, the snubs, the surprises, the juicy goss (including one very naughty speech), the cinematic treatment and the show-stopping performances, this wedding, nay, GLOBAL UNION OF LOVE, will go down in the pop culture history books. And will most likely be turned into an actual movie. Because we are nothing if not committed to bringing you the piping hot Taylor wedding TEA, we even have a special NYC correspondent, Kate Ruth Reeves, on the ground and following the goss for us in real time. Let’s unpack it in all its T&T* glory. *Trademark exclusive to Mr & Mrs Swift-Kelce - Follow us: @the_fifth_trimester See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    WATCH PARTY: Voicemails For Isabelle - RomCom Revival Or Chasing A Dragon?

    Another week, another streamer rom-com has taken over the internet. This week’s film of the moment? Voicemails For Isabelle, the Netflix hit everyone is calling the best rom-com in years. The film follows Jill, a grieving chef played by Zoey Deutch, who keeps leaving wildly confessional voicemails on her late sister Isabelle’s old number - only for that number to be reassigned to Wes, played by Nick Robinson, an Austin real estate hotshot who starts listening in and falling in love from afar. So, is this a swoony 90s rom-com throwback, or are movies trying to recreate something that was lightning in a bottle?  Or does it not really matter, and can’t we all just suspend reality for two hours and watch hot young people do hot things? We discuss.    Mentions: Love & Virtue by Diana Reid  Follow us: @the_fifth_trimester   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    If You Could, Would You Pick Your Baby’s Gender?

    Coming in hot with very exciting couples’ news: from the A-list power couple Down Under, to the Off Campus IRL couple - love is in the air. Speaking of, Lu had a DAYTIME hook-up at the Aussie’s soccer game on Friday and she’s SPILLING all the deets. Hey Karl Stefanovic, we’ve got your number, babe. The now-sacked Today host appears to be following a very obvious formula for becoming a right-wing podcast bro and, quite frankly, we think it stinks. Have you ever heard of a “gender swayer”? Because MAFS golden couple Jules Robinson and Cam Merchant, who share two sons, are using one in the hopes of conceiving a daughter. And as proud girl mums and boy mums respectively, it’s brought up a lot of questions for us. Then, our INs and OUTs include an awesome new second-hand website landing in Australia and the ultimate winter accessory.
